While I love how this story wrapped up and came together, I saw the “twist” coming about halfway through the book and stared to get frustrated that it wasn’t yet happening. There was also some significant repetition and writing that was just okay - and a very strange, intense focus on Alice in Wonderland - that made me rate this significantly less than I otherwise might have. I still love anything having to do with psychology, and this was ALL about it.
